Technically Latin has had many symbols for dipthongs, but in practice only two became common: Æ and Œ. They are usually classified as ligatures, but that's not technically correct in this case.

Supply-and-demand describes the value that humans place on goods and services that by their very nature are not infinite. In that, it is a description of human behavior, and because it is based on human action in aggregate, acts as a law of

Wow! Thank you. Love it. And built-in Powerline glyphs so no need for a custom font.

If you are in the path of totality, don't worry about the glasses. In the path of totality, eclipse glasses are only for observing the sun before and after full occlusion. Instead, make a pinhole projector. It's super easy (any th

The problem I have with Mint is that a dist-upgrade is not possible. You can try it, and break everything in the process. They officially recommend a clean wipe and install. Or at least this was the case a few releases ago.

We moved from Auth.NET to Braintree, but not in the traditional sense. We use our own merchant account with Braintree's API, something that not many people know is even possible. Braintree's one-iframe-per-field integration is a b

Nonsense. The door is ajar, and the camera isn't in perfect vertical alignment with the door. I just checked this by drawing a line in photoshop. It's a straight line at an angle. And your "broken carpet" looks like a re

No one will be paying that for cellular connectivity. It's all about the shared data pools now. I pay $10/mo. for my iPad Pro cellular. I'm on T-Mobile, but when I was on Verizon, it was only $15/mo. I have a friend with

Uh huh. And if you reverse the polarity of the neutron flow, all these problems go away. Seriously, you’re just spouting audiophile mumbo-jumbo and confusing issues encountered during mastering with limitations of the final recorded media.

I think the answer is to take a hybrid approach. Use an ORM where it makes sense. You shouldn't need to write SQL to do simple CRUD and elementary queries with a join or two. But when things get more complex, you should be able to easi

No, it's not the same thing at all. There is a distinct difference between your own internal dialogue and hearing voices. When you are hashing out things with yourself, you perceive yourself as the source of the voices/thoughts. O
